- rhagfoExplorer IIIThere is nothing magic or different with RV plumbing than a S&B house. We have replaced the kitchen sink with a very nice American Standard high arch pull out spray head faucet. Replaced the bathroom faucet with new single handle faucet. We replaced the crappy plastic double bowl kitchen sink with a very nice Moen SS deep double bowl, I can fill a 5 gal bucket in this sink as the faucet will clear the top of the bucket.
Rerouted the shower drain in the basement to gain more storage space, moved the trap to a wall rather than in the middle of the basement.
We are now looking a bathroom remodel going to a Vessel sink and spout faucet. All devices and materials purchased at either Lowe’s or Home Depot, or other local hardware or plumbing supply store. - Larry-DExplorer IIReplaced ours last weekend. Lowes with a higher arch and single handle. Fit perfectly, standard 4" spacing between the holes in the sink. The PEX lines worked with a little manipulation of the copper lines coming out of the faucet. The fittings were also the same. 15 minute job. You may not been a faucet wrench. Was able to easily reach the faucet and connections were hand tight. The new faucet used large washers and a nut to tighten down. Did need a ratchet, short extension and a deep socket.
- msueExplorerThank you for all of your helpful suggestions. We are out camping so my 9 year old gransdson with a little help from his dad replaced the faucet with a Delta one.
They also replaced bathroom doorknob.
Thank you again. - krobbeExplorerDefinitely replace with a standard bathroom faucet. My replacement is a Delta with a higher spout to get hands under the stream more easily.

x2 on the stop valves. Did that with every water connection inside, so if the faucet or whatever breaks, I can simply shut it off from the rest of the system until it can be fixed rather than go without water to everything because there's no way to isolate the problem. - ScottGNomadAny standard 4" bathroom faucet will "definitely fit" your RV. Don't fall for buying another junk, plastic, overpriced "RV" faucet.
Heck, een higher end RV's dont come with "RV" faucets. - GrandpaKipExplorer III just replaced the sink and faucet in the bathroom of ours with a Delta single handle and an Elkay bar sink. Not a huge deal. Had to cut some of the counter to fit new sink.
It’s a good idea to cut the pex and install cutoff valves with flex supply lines. I used Sharkbites.
It’s a nice upgrade. - LynnmorExplorerI would suggest that you install a stop valves and standard supply lines to the new faucet. In the future you wouldn't need to shut down the entire water system to do a faucet repair.
- Farmboy666ExplorerI would suggest if you have to cut the pex using SharkBite slip fittings. Makes the job a lot easier and not crimp ring or tool required.
- xteacherExplorerIf you want one that definitely fits an RV, check Amazon. Just type RV bathroom faucet into the search field.
